It reminds me of this quote: "[...]an unauthorized copy of a propietary
program is something ugly, almost as ugly as an authorized copy", quoted
(and translated to english) from the video
http://trayectosmultimedia.net/files/rstallman.ogg
recorded in "La casa invisible" ( http://lainvisible.net )
Personally, I ocassionally buy a proprietary, fully authorized and
expensive car, but my hackable bicycle usually makes me happier. Most
people seem to think different, though.
